by N. A. Teplov - the name of the sculptor and date are

This is a relatively uncommon portrayal of the "Iron
Felix". The bust shows him in an overcoat and hat,
wearing a gimnasterka shirt.
In excellent condition. The bust is completely free of
wear, scratches or scuffs.

Dzerzhinsky was the founder and chief of Soviet secret
police (Cheka and, later, GPU) and one of the prime
architects of the "Red Terror". His zeal in defending the
Revolution inspired generations of secret policemen in
virtually every socialist country.
